At recent public meeting held at
West Superior TO consider the question
of Incorporation, by u close vote it was
decided To present to the Judge for
his confirmation the name of West
Superior for the new town. and GER
tain committee having the whole mat
ter IN charge, was instructed to pre-
sent that name rs indicated by vote
Of those attending the meeting. Some
who were not there objected to the
name and they we're promptly met
with the reply that the meeting had 50
decided, and if they had objections
they ought 10 have been there and op-
posed 1t, etc, and So the discussion was
dropped to be argued before the Judge
at the proper time. This was all tight.
But what do we find now? Simply
that this committee held u meeting
somewhere, sometime last week, and
oyerstepping their instructions and
their authority, set aside the vote Of
that great mass meeting Of the pco-
pie, and issue their proclamation to
the effect that they have kindly con
scented to give the people their priv
lege Of going to the post office in Su-
perior or West Superior, and selecting
one Of three entirely new and differ
ent names, and that the new name
having the longest list Of endorsers on
the lst Of July 1887, shall b. the nalle
q the Rcic i5tca, and intimate in the
true bull-doze style that If one of these
new names Is not chosen, they, or
some other parties Of the public un-
known, viii defeat the organization al
together. Now why is this? Simply
because the ones who are trying to
kill off Superior found that their name
Of West SUPERIOR was not at all
popular and would not be entertained,
50 this scheme 10 bulIloze The people
was adopted, but il won't work. II
the citizens Of the West end wish f.
defeat organization Just because they
cannot dictate all the terms Of the
compact, then we say LET then, defeat

MARCHING 4E.eNG.

Everything appears very quiet in
and about the odd fogy town Of super
ior," but don't you forget it, to use a
homely phrase, 1T is the quiet SOW
that gets the swiII," and while some of
our cranky neighbors at the west end
have been burning their midnight oil
and losing much sleep III concocting
ways and means for blasting from the
maps and pages of history the name Of
Superior" our people have been go
ing right along III the even tenor Of
their ways and making preparations
for a rapid and substantial growth.
The foundations are being laid for
business houses, work on the street
railway will begin in a few days, the
fine hotel to be built by Mr.. Gates
will soon assume positive proportions,
plans for new residences are being pre-
pared and others handsomely improy-
cd all on the west side Of the river.
On the east side Of the Nemadji, dur
ing the past two weeks real estate to
the value Of over 100000 has chang
ed hands What tor, do you ask? We
do not know, simply because the buy
crs have not coustlcd their plans to
Us, but nearly all the purchases were
made by men Of means and enterprise,
and Il large elevator, a large saw mill
plant, coal docks, and other extensive
Improvements are spoken Of in con
.iIent tone by those who seem to know
what they are talking about. But
whatever the plans may be, it IS quite
evident that parties with plenty Of
capital behind them are preparing the
way for extensive improvements along
the east side Of the Nemadji.
Another evidence that we are in
good healthy growing condition lies in
the fact that every day we hear Of
some new conner trying to find Il place
to live in, and not vacant room can
be found Ia the town, and a dozen
houses could be rented in rs many
hours il We had them to rent, ana this
leads us TO again remark that some Of

matters.

Tell a Westender that he is a
political schemer and he will howl
himself hoarse with well feigned in
dignatIon but the following little
item in the Du!uth News Of Wendes-
day from the pen Of the West Super
Tor reporter, rather gives the thing
away.
"Tho would be politicians, states
men and such are busy trying to get
up slate that will last"
Among other things to come under
the new organization, they want, as
may be inferred from another item
from the same source and date, three
Of the six trustees provided by law,
and the president Of the council, to
this end two trustees, and MiddIctown
one. Why not PIT another quirle in
your tails, let the bristles all show and

perior out entirely2

lF the speech of Senator Frye, delivered
yesterday upon the committee Of foreign
relations report on the Canadian fishery
question, be construed literally, the United
States government might be regarded as
within measurable distance Of war with
Great Britain. The voice, however, Of
Senator Edmunds is somewhat ambiguous,
and Senator Ingalls, pours upon the troubled
waters some Of his peculiar oil, largely
mixed, as that soothing unguent usually Is,
with vinegar and general pickles. The
quarrel is pretty one enough as II stands,
but there are at least three different ways
by which Canadian bumptiousness may
be suppressed without an appeal
to drums and guns. Diplomacy, II good
for anything, has bere an excellent oppor-
tunity for showing the mettle Of its pasture.
The treaty OF 1918 sis as clear as 1t can be,n
and II acted upon specifically would put an
end to the recurring troubles. A joint
commission could easily settle the dispute.
And, as Senator Frye suggests, the Presl-
dent Of the United States might be empow-
cred, as the queen Of Great Britain has
been already empowered with reference to
her own dominlons, "to close American
ports against some fishermen, or all fisher
men; against any merchant vessel, or all
merchant yessels." With so many easy
and pacific methods at hand, 1t is to be

The japanese minister and Nine. Kuki held
avery large reception last evening. This min
lister stood in the door TO receive his guests,
with his right hand wrapped IN q silk hand

iul telOn. Nine. Kuki had the assistance OF
Mrs. Carter, Miss Ruki, and Mrs s NJ. Bryan
in receiving. The tute of rooms Is four deep
and all were thrown open to the guests. The
supper was served IN the last one. The Post
master General aud Mrs. Villas, Mrs. Folsom
and Miss Hoyne, members Of the diplomatic

The Hon. Charles B. Farwell declined a
reception rendered him by his neighbors
and friends In honor of his election as
United States senator. In declining, Mr.
Farwell took occasion to say that he in
tended, so far as possible, to avoid and pre-
vent any seeming rejoicing over the be.
Ieavsment when deprived Illinois of the
,minent services of Gen. Logan, which sad
nd unexpected event resulted in his elec-
ton for Senator Logan's unexplred term.

fay the right thing in the right way and at

TIE New York star has this to say OF an
old letter that has just been dragged to
light:
H.V. Boynton's publication of Rawlins's let
ter chiding Grant for taking n glass of wine
while before Vicksburg, as u defense of Murat
Halsted's old accusation of drunkenness,
pleases no right minded man. The narrative
with which this reproduction is surrounded is
strained and Illogical, and does not make out
case. Its principal effect now will be to re-
call Lincoln's remark that he wished other
generals would drink some of Grants whisky.
No one suspects Gen. Boynton of wish
to iDjure the fame Of Gen Grant, and it Is
quite certain that this letter will not have
that effect. But such papers should be
left in ohscurity. The glcry OF Gen. Raw
Inns needs no bolstering.

DURING ten out of the twelve years that
have elapsed since 1875 the Democratic
party has controlled the House Of Repre-
sentatives. During two or those years 1t
controlled both branches of Congress.
During every hour of all these $3.50 days
that party has been pledged to ''revenue

IT WAS scarcely necessary for ex-MinIster
Washburne to deny that absurd story about
his having allowed dlshonorable use to be

in Paris. The tale bore its condemnation on
its face, and as lie 1t was neither skillful nor
interesting. Philadelphia Press
If that story had come across the Atlantic
supported by the aflidavits of all the press
writers in Paris, 1t would have found no
credence in the United States.

THE Florida Times Union prints an argu-
ment by "one OF the ablqst constitutional
lawyers in the state" which concludes
thus:
As the parliament IN James case declared
vacancy and filled 1t, so think II Is the CON
stitutional duty of the governor TO declare a
vacancy in that of Jones, and fill IL. Healone
in the absence of the legislature has the right
to do so. The Senate could only inform him
ofthe vacancy a fact, which, 1t exists, as !
maintain, he knows as well as the Senate
does. Ifthis reasoning b G not good, the sem
ator whom the legislature may elect next April
may go Ito Washington, present his creden-
tials, take the oath of office, then absent HIM
selffor the whole term Of six years and there
is no remedy.
The Times Union editorially inderses this
view. 1t is the opinion OF the NATIONAL
REPUBLICAN that the United States Senate
is the sole judge as to the right of Jones TO
hold Eon. II the governor or legislature
could 'declare vacancy" we should have
any number Of vacancies declared for po-
lltlcal reasons. a state is powerless to re-
lleve itself OF senator, The power that
makes cannot unmake.
